An engine system includes an engine duct and a tail cone arranged radially inwardly of the engine duct. The tail cone has an outer surface and an inner surface. A generator housing is arranged in the tail cone. The generator housing includes an outer surface portion spaced from the inner surface of the tail cone. A generator is mounted in the generator housing. An air duct extends from the generator, through the generator housing, through the tail cone, and through the engine duct. The air duct includes an opening exposed to an air stream passing over the engine duct.
